Thanks for the bug report. This is a common problem and is almost always
due to a bad connection or low quality cable. Please try unplugging and
replugging the cable at both ends. If that doesn't solve it then please
try a different cable. For better performance and reliability on a
Lenovo G50-70, I would recommend using the HDMI port instead of VGA.
